Wasn't there an interview where a Hordak origin comic was mentioned as well?

I believe it was Keith Giffen who mentioned he is interested in penciling a Hordak origin comic after the 6-issue miniseries ends. Since we already have a DC Comics Skeletor origin and will be getting a He-Man origin in a couple of months, hopefully the Hordak story is still in the works.

Some of them, like for the Goddess, were great, but didn't like Evil-Lyn's bio at all! Whoever did the MOTUC bios clearly wanted Orko and Trolla [Seriously? Trolla?] at the center of everything, by making them the most powerful in the story. The gods - Procrustus, Teela, Zodac, Sharella, Havok, Light Hope and the others - should be what the cosmic forces the original stories intended them to be. The MOTUC bios totally got that wrong!

Yea I agree. I thought I was tripping reading the first few when they kept mentioning Trolla. It's a dead end for me. Why make it so important when it was only mentioned in a few flimation cartoons. It has no concrete depth or balance to any storyline any where else.

You are completely right, sir. This is one of the worst way those awful bios went wrong.

A bloodied Power Sword huh? I personally don't mind or care, but I know many friends here will take some strong offense to that. Even if I don't mind or care... I have to say I wouldn't have done that for a cover.

Still like that we're getting new takes on MotU though. I am enjoying it for what it is.

It quite annoys me when covers do not relate to the story in the issue. Every cover has had He-man on yet he hasn't appeared!

Where does it state that artwork is a cover?

We've seen all Printed DC covers from Dave Wilkins.
Digital comics haven't updated any info for some time, so I figure if this was a cover for a digital comic, we would know some blurb to it as well.

Don't like He-Man's face in that picture. His chin looks far too big. They’ve made him look like a wrestler, which I don’t like. Also, where is this from? We've seen the remaining covers for the series. So what's this for?

I'm still hoping that this leads to a monthly series beyond the six issues. So far, I've liked most of this take, although still puzzled why Hordak looks very drastically different. At least with the other characters there were still enough in each character to recognize who they are. Hordak only has the face, somewhat.

It's pretty sad when I find myself checking these comic threads yet don't really care if I miss them or not. I think it makes a big statement about the quality and direction these comics took.
I would never have missed the MVC comics but these DC and digital ones (as well as the "mini" comics) just don't have any appeal to me as a MotU fan.

Exact same sentiments. I will buy this DC series in trade paperback... whenever that releases. I own the 1st issue and decided then and there it wasn't worth the monthly wait. Not enough Stratos!
